I own a X6M and test drove the M5 Comp but both really don't sound like proper V8s to me. It's always personal preference but I do enjoy the sound of an AMG or SVR over the current gen M, even with exhaust mods.
I agree with you there. SVR sounds good but seems about the same level of noise/deepness of sound as my 50i when I roll the windows down. There's no ASD in my car + with acoustic glass its super quiet inside so I don't realize how loud the exhaust is under full load most of the time.
